Re: native Oracle-port on Linux -- what would it take?

Hehe, about August 1995 (after SCO world 95') I went to visit Linus at a little geek meeting at UCSC. I overheard one of the guys there talking
to another guy about how it took him 4 days to compile Oracle on his (386?486?)-33. Sybase has an unsupported copy of OC 10.0.3 for Linux. I am actually quite interested in this, because we use Sybase at work, and we are venturing into using Linux as frontline servers. I would really love to see Sybase support Linux. Actually, I'd love to see them support Solaris too ;) (in reference to the really henious signal handling in OC 11.01 under Solaris).
